La lettura iconografica della Madonna con Bambino della chiesa di San Nicola, affrontata per la prima volta, offre uno spaccato storico, sociale e politico del territorio periferico irpino, in continuo dialogo con la capitale del Viceregno. Nuovi documenti consentono, inoltre, di ampliare sia le notizie biografiche, sia la produzione dell’artista.; This contribution focuses on the figure of the Neapolitan painter Giuseppe Tomajoli and the specific events that led to the commissioning of Fontanarosa's paintings. The iconographic interpretation of the Madonna and Child from the church of San Nicola, explored for the first time, offers an historical, social, and political perspective on the peripheral Irpinia region, in constant dialogue with the capital of the Viceroyalty. New documents allow us to expand the artist's biographical information and production.

Il saggio ne esamina la biografia con particolare attenzione per le strategie di alleanza e di inimicizia all’interno ed all’esterno della grande consorteria Medici-Borromeo alla quale apparteneva.; Cardinal Alfonso Gesualdo (1540-1603), Carlo's uncle, was a key figure in the political balance of power within the Vatican Curia in the late sixteenth century, from Pius IV to Clement VIII. He was a refined patron from the time he became Archbishop of Naples in 1596, introducing a strongly Tuscan taste to the figurative arts. This essay examines his biography, focusing in particular on his strategies of alliance and enmity within and outside the large Medici-Borromeo consorteria to which he belonged.

La scoperta, dovuta alle ricerche di Stefano Schivi e Andrea Ballardini, consente di chiarire le vicende del dipinto e i rapporti transnazionali della casata con le principali corti europee, in particolare l’ambiente imperiale di Praga. In parallelo, viene analizzato un poco noto ritratto di Luigi III Gesualdo, conservato a New York, rilevante per la sua iconografia complessa e per il suo valore documentario. Attraverso l’apporto di studiosi e istituzioni culturali, lo scritto sottolinea il ruolo della ricerca interdisciplinare nella valorizzazione della memoria storica gesualdiana, contribuendo ad ampliare il quadro genealogico, artistico e politico legato alla dinastia del principe madrigalista Carlo Gesualdo.; The article, taking as its point of departure the recent rediscovery of a portrait of Emanuele Gesualdo (1588–1613), offers an original contribution to the historical and dynastic reconstruction of the Gesualdo family. The discovery – stemming from research conducted by Stefano Schivi and Andrea Ballardini – clarifies both the provenance of the painting and the transnational connections linking the Gesualdo lineage to major European courts, particularly the imperial milieu of Prague. In parallel, the study examines a little-known portrait of Luigi III Gesualdo, preserved in New York, noteworthy for its complex iconography and documentary significance. Through the combined work of scholars and cultural institutions, the article highlights the role of interdisciplinary research in enhancing the historical memory of the Gesualdo family, thereby expanding the genealogical, artistic, and political framework surrounding the dynasty of the madrigalist prince Carlo Gesualdo.

Taking the prosthesis as a paradigmatic figure, it argues that technological mediation is not external to the human condition but constitutive of it: from bodily devices to algorithmic environments, artifacts co-produce subjectivities, redistribute agency, and reconfigure the norms through which bodies, capacities, and identities are recognized. Drawing on STS, sociology of the body, and the framework of algomorphic society, the editorial examines how digital platforms and AI-based systems — understood as semi-autonomous relational actors — reshape self-presentation, emotional regulation, and practices of recognition. The contributions gathered in the issue address phenomena including algorithmic legitimation, AI imaginaries among young adults, online shaming, moral panic, and the attention architectures of digital childhood. Together, they interrogate the threshold at which technology ceases to be a support and becomes a co-constitutive matrix of social experience.
